Starting at 1 p.m. the same day, boys and girls ages 7 to 14 will have to opportunity to participate in Major League Baseball's "Pitch, Hit and Run" competition -- described as a "grassroots program designed to provide the opportunity to compete, free of charge, in a competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball and softball skills."

All participants must bring a copy of their birth certificate and fill out a waiver prior to competing. The event will be held at E.E. Robinson Park, baseball fields 6 and 7.
